Description

i think it's weird right now that running bin/solr with the "-e" (example) option causes it to create example solr instances inside the server directory.

i think that's fine for running solr "normally" (ie: "start") but if you use "-e" that seems like the solr.solr.home for those example should instead be created under $SOLR_TIP/example.

I would even go so far as to suggest that the log files created should live in that directory as well.
